Does RICAR support remote scanning?
A. Yes, RICAR’s FreeScan capture software has the ability to scan from any remote location to a centralized or remote cache server. Document images can be temporarily stored at a cache server, replicated up to a centralized server in either real-time or on a scheduled basis (i.e., hourly, daily, etc.) using RICAR’s FreeReplicator software. Caching images locally at a remote site allows the RICAR Manager to render images to remote users at that site and eliminate the necessity of moving images across a Wide Area Network (WAN) providing minimal use of busy networks and provide split-second search and retrieval to remote users. Remote scanning requires either WAN connectivity or utilizes a VPN for secure archiving to a centralized server.
